Life can get chaotic at times and it's essential to take a step back, be present and positively praise the hard work of all those special people in our lives.

Think about the last time someone genuinely complimented you or acknowledged your hard work.

It could have been that your manager recognized your devotedness to a recent project or maybe a dear friend noticed your tedious efforts to be more mindful with your days. Regardless, on how big or small the compliment was, you were credited for your efforts and it felt pretty amazing, right? So why don't we take this practice and put it into play in our everyday lives, especially for our partners who may not realize how proud and pleased we are with their latest ventures.

Portray confidence. When you are confident while admiring your partner, he/she will more likely believe your words and therefore become more self-assured about his/her work moving forward.

Now, let's not forget about those other extraordinary beings in our lives. In fact, not only does this tactic apply to our significant other, but this is something that can be applied to all of our beautiful relationships - co-workers, family members, even our furry friends :)
